Background   Angelica sinensis  (Oliv.) Diels ( A. sinensis ) is a Chinese herb grown in different geographical locations. It contains numerous active components with therapeutic value. Rhizosphere microbiomes affect various aspects of plant performance, such as nutrient acquisition, growth and development and plant diseases resistance. So far, few studies have investigated how the microbiome effects level of active components of  A. sinensis.  This study investigated whether changes in rhizosphere microbial communities and metabolites of  A. sinensis  vary with the soil microenvironment. Soils from the two main  A. sinensis- producing areas, Gansu and Yunnan Province, were used to conduct pot experiments. The soil samples were divided into two parts, one part was sterilized and the other was unsterilized planting with the seedling variety of Gansu danggui 90–01. All seedlings were allowed to grow for 180 days. At the end of the experiment, radix  A. sinensis  were collected and used to characterize growth targets and chemical compositions. Rhizosphere soils were subjected to microbial analyses.    Results  Changes in metabolic profiles and rhizosphere microbial communities of  A. sinensis  grown under different soil microenvironments were similar. The GN (Gansu non-sterilized), YN (Yunnan non-sterilized), GS (Gansu sterilized), and YS (Yunnan sterilized) groups were significantly separated. Notably, antagonistic bacteria such as  Sphingomonas ,  Pseudomonas ,  Lysobacter ,  Pseudoxanthomonas , etc. were significantly ( p  < 0.05) enriched in Gansu soil compared with Yunnan soil. Moreover, senkyunolide I and ligustilide dimers which were enriched in GS group were strongly positively correlated with  Pseudomonas parafulva ; organic acids (including chlorogenic acid, dicaffeoylquinic acid and 5-feruloylquinic acid) and their ester coniferyl ferulate which were enriched in YS Group were positively associated with  Gemmatimonadetes  bacterium WY71 and  Mucilaginibater  sp., respectively.    Conclusions  The soil microenvironment influences growth and level/type of active components in  A. sinensis . Further studies should explore the functional features of quality-related bacteria, identify the key response genes and clarify the interactions between genes and soil environments. This will reveal the mechanisms that determine the quality formation of genuine  A. sinensis .
